I would like to know why the juncture of welds in orthogonal directions shall be avoided? The weld access holes doesn´t must be closed for this reason.

You might want to take a look at the commentary to 5.17 from AWS D1.1. I think it will give you some useful information. Besides the difficulties in getting a full penetration weld at the web / flange juncture, weld cracking could be an issue without weld access holes.
Respectfully,
